Topic: KakaoStats shutting down (Read 119514 times)

After more than 10 years producing Folding@Home stats KakaoStats will shut down on January 1st 2015.

The reasons are: I do not have the time to finish the new version; I can't upgrade the hardware; My home connection is a constant chore to keep working; The server takes space for which I have better use and it warns my work room up.

This is the earlier KakaoStats version I found but I think there were earlier ones:

I'm so sad to hear that kakao stats will be closing down but I totally understand your reasons. If I was younger and could afford it I would love to help out. Hopefully someone in a position to do so will come forward.

Good luck in all your future endeavors and thank you so much for your past ones.

Hi, It is sad to hear that KakaoStats is no longer able to run after a fantastic ten years of service.Kakao has been by far a leading advancement in competitive folding and has also helped all folders in optimizing rigs for folding and benefitting the project.

As Kakao has mentioned above the server will need to be hosted in a datacentre. I work in conjunction with an Australian community called MTS. MTS has been folding for a small period of time now and have spare dedicated resources we would like to use to support KakaoStats. We have taken a copy of the Github repository and will be working on it in the coming weeks. With Kakao's consent we will be looking forward to restoring Kakaostats and updating the current code supplied.

If you have any questions please feel free to PM me on this forum and I will respond ASAP.
